Controlling the mouse button event polling rate?

Controlling the mouse button event polling rate?

[JS Hysing]

I have been using artist-mode and noticed that even at moderate mouse movement speeds the mouse event polling rate (here for down-mouse-1) does not seem to keep up (so lines end up with scattered holes in them instead of being continous).

Is there a way to modify or increase the mouse (down) button event polling rate?

I suspect it isn't polled but interrupt based so the
problem should be a bottleneck before, during, or
after the event, rather than the event itself not
being reported in time due to periodic polling.

Drop the author of the package a mail if you don't get
a better answer here!
